Spot a job (8)
I believe the answer is:
position
This clue is a double definition.
'spot' is the first definition.
(I know that spot can be written as position)
'a job' is the second definition.
(I know that position is a type of job)
(Other definitions for position that I've seen before include "Place - standing" , "Locate" , "Place - situation" , "Place where something is" , "Rank" .)
